I started out with Body for Life. I found the book on half.com for .75 cents plus shipping. It's been REALLY great to help me get started. Good luck!0

I have not bought the book, But I have heard that the "new rules of lifting for women" is a real good book. There is even a thread on here.0

Thanks for all the ideas, i'll have to check those out.
I am hoping when i start weight training the pounds should come off easier? When you do things like lifting do you keep your calories the same as they are if you weren't exercising?
